GENERAL BERNARD A. SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE ASSOCIATION LOS ANGELES CHAPTER 147 from the President… GENERAL BERNARD A. SCHRIEVER AIR FORCE ASSOCIATION LOS ANGELES CHAPTER 147 From the President…. Dear Members of the AFA General Bernard A. Schriever Los Angeles Chapter: The missions of your Air Force Association are to Educate the public on the importance of Aerospace Power; to Advocate Aerospace Power to the public and to our elected repre- sentatives; and to Support the Air Force and the Air Force family. The Schriever Chapter tends to emphasize the Support mission, through varied forms of philanthropy (AFROTC grants, Enlisted and Company Grade Officer scholarships, donations to the Los Angeles Air Force Spouses’ Club, donations to local high schools competing in AFA’s CyberPatriot initia- tive, and many others), and by annually recognizing the outstanding achievements of the men and women of the Space & Missile Systems Center. This quarter the chapter was very active in both the education and the recognition as- pects of the Support mission, as detailed in several articles below. We honored AFROTC ca- dets at UCLA and Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) graduates at SMC. We pre- sented the Schriever Award to Secretary of the Air Force Michael B. Donley, and a Schriever Fellowship Award to SMC Vice Commander Brig Gen Roger W. Teague, as part of the annual AFA Salute to SMC. In addition, the Chapter Board of Directors elected Marcia Peura to the Board as the new Chapter Secretary, and she is doing a great job. Marcia takes over from Barby Kollenda, who retired from Lockheed Martin and from the Board last year, but volunteered to stay on until we could find a replacement – no small task, as Barby has flawlessly handled a number of disparate tasks for the chapter during her years of service. Many thanks to Barby, and a big ‘welcome aboard’ to Marcia! The last half of the year we will be attending the AFA National Conference in September – and applauding SMC’s Protected Milsatcom Team as they receive the Schilling Award for the recovery of AEHF Flight 1. Watch the Chapter’s website http://www.afa147.org for news on and registration instructions for upcoming events: SMC Industry Days Oct 2-4 and AFA Sports Day Oct 2; an AFA Fall Mixer at LA AFB; and the AFA Executive Reception in con- junction with the Air Force Ball and Global Warfare Symposium Nov 15-16. These will all be excellent opportunities to network with AF and SMC senior management as well as your in- dustry colleagues. If you are interested in joining the Chapter Board of Directors or in supporting activities of the Chapter’s Schriever Education Foundation, and/or our committees (membership, community relations, education, and many more) contact me or any Board member. We welcome all who want to ‘give back’ to the SMC community, the Air Force family, and the nation – there’s always a lot to do, and we’re all volunteers. Please call or write: we’ll find rewarding ways for you to help us educate, advocate, and support the Air Force. Steve Quilici AN INDEPENDENT NON-PROFIT AEROSPACE ORGANIZATION P.O. Box 394 El Segundo, CA 90245 1 AFROTC Scholarships On May 27th, Board Member Maj Gen (ret) Howard “Mitch” Mitchell attended the 2012 UCLA AFROTC Dining Out Ceremony, and presented $1000 scholarships to six outstanding cadets. This was as a part of the Schriever Chapter’s annual giving to the three local ROTC units your Chapter supports: UCLA, USC, and Loyola Marymount Univer- sity. The UCLA AFROTC detachment includes cadets from a number of local colleges; this year’s awardees were: Congratulations Cadets Snyder, Thiem, Gayson, Manuel, Kahan, and Do. The ageless guy in the middle is MG Mitchell. AN INDEPENDENT NON-PROFIT AEROSPACE ORGANIZATION P.O.

The Executive Forum brings together SMC senior managers with aerospace industry execu- tives to discuss topics of special interest to the SMC Commander. This year, government/ industry panels discussed (a) Orchestrating the Transition from RDT&E to Production while Retaining RDT&E for Evolving Capabilities; (b) Tailoring Mission Assurance and Inde- pendent Oversight for Lower Cost and Manageable Risk; and (c) Resilient and Cost- Effective Future Architectures. Panel Moderators included Mr. R Scott Correll, Air Force PEO for Space Launch; Mr. Doug Loverro, SMC Executive Director; and Brig Gen Kenneth Moran, SMC Director of Program Management & Integration. SMC Directorate Honored by AFA Chapter The Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) Infrared Space Systems Directorate was honored as SMC’s Unit of the Year by the AFA General Bernard A Schriever Los Angeles Chapter at the 38th Annual AFA Salute to SMC Banquet. The Directorate develops, de- ploys, and sustains $27B in surveillance satellites and ground stations to detect, track, and report global and theater ballistic missile attacks against the United States, its allies and combat forces. Supported systems include the Defense Support Program (DSP) and Space-Based Infrared Satellite (SBIRS) systems. Several members of the Directorate were in attendance to help Col Planeaux accept the award. AN INDEPENDENT NON-PROFIT AEROSPACE ORGANIZATION P.O.

Donley, was the General Bernard A. Schriever National Space Leadership Award, for outstanding achievement in support of USAF space and missile programs. Mr. Donley then gave a very well received talk on the evolving future of space ac- tivities. Past Schriever Awardees include SecAFs F. Whitten Peters, Sheila E. Widnall, Pete Aldridge, and Hans Mark; USecAF/ DNRO Peter Teets; and Generals Robert Kehler, Kevin Chilton, Lance Lord, Lester Lyles, Thomas Moorman, Charles Horner, Donald Kutyna, Robert Herres, Samuel Phillips, and Lew Allen, Jr. The Chapter has been presenting the Schriever Award since 1975.

The Los Angeles Chap- ter collaborates on this award with AFA Headquarters, which grants an academic scholarship to a deserving student in the name of the Schriever Fellowship Award winner, extending the education mission of AFA. Previous Schriever Fellowship Award winners include Generals Lester Lyles, James Dalton, and Bernard Randolph; Lt Generals Eugene Tattini, Roger DeKok, Don Cromer, Brian Arnold, and Larry James; and Air Force Deputy Undersecretaries Gary Payton and Richard McKinney.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 15 LEW ALLEN, JR. 1925–2010 Elected in 1978 “For pioneering work in combining technologies of space and information processing to strengthen the nation.” BY JOHN R. CASANI LEW ALLEN, JR.—a towering figure in all respects—died on January 4, 2010, at his home in Potomac Falls, Virginia. He devoted 36 years of service to the nation in the U.S. Air Force, becoming a four-star general and the tenth U.S. Air Force chief of staff. When he retired from the Air Force in 1982, he agreed to become director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In 1990 he left JPL and served as chairman of the board of the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory in Boston. Throughout his long and productive life, Lew Allen, Jr., was recognized and honored not only for his technical knowledge but also for his wide-ranging intelligence, great integrity, and profound vision. He possessed strong, engaging leadership qualities—a “steady steel hand in a velvet glove,” as one colleague put it. Lew Allen was born in Miami, Florida, on September 30, 1925, and grew up in Gainesville, Texas. He entered the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1943, graduating in 1946 with a bachelor of science degree, a commission as a second lieutenant, and pilot wings. After completing multiengine flight training, he was assigned to Strategic Air Command’s 7th Bombardment Group at Fort Worth Army Airfield (later renamed Carswell Air Force Base), where he flew B-29s and B-36s and served in positions related to nuclear weaponry.
